Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced riders who understand the quirks of a rigid-frame custom with a raked-out front end and no rear suspension.
PurposeBuilt as a high-horsepower show-and-go custom cruiser, meant to turn heads at bike nights and rallies rather than rack up touring miles.
Rider FitThe low 21-inch seat height is easy to mount, but the rigid rear and long rake demand strong arms and a tolerance for a harsh, jarring ride over anything but smooth pavement.
CharacterA brash, chopper-styled powerhouse with big V-twin torque, girder front suspension, and Brembo brakes that hint at genuine stopping power beneath the flashy trumpets and chrome.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for riders seeking comfort, long-distance touring capability, passenger accommodation, or any kind of off-road or tight cornering agility.

2009 Von Dutch Flying Dutchman II Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 533mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Von Dutch Flying Dutchman II, with a cramped knee angle of around 60 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
